Something in the Way He Moves
[Verse 1]
There's somethin' in the way he moves
Looks my way or calls my name
It seems to leave this troubled world behind
And if I'm feelin' down and blue
Troubled by some foolish game
He always seems to make me change my mind

[Chorus]
And I feel fine anytime he's around me now
He's around me now almost all the time
And if I'm well you can tell he's been with me now
He's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine

[Bridge]
Every now and then the things I lean on can lose their meanin'
And I find myself careenin'
Into places where I should not let me go, no
He's got the power to go where no one else can find me
And to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know
Just gotta know him

[Verse 2]
It isn't what he's got to say
Or how he thinks or where he's been
To me the words are nice the way they sound
I like to hear them best that way
It doesn't matter what they mean
He says them mostly just to calm me down
[Chorus]
And I feel fine anytime he's around me now
He's around me now almost all the time
And if I'm well you can tell he's been with me now
He's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine
